In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we are learning about the first Thanksgiving this week and expressing what we are all thankful for. The children have really been grasping the basics about the first Thanksgiving this year. Some of the children were even pretending to be pilgrims sailing on the Mayflower the other day outside! I just love their imaginations!
We have been singing a song every day that lets the children express what they are thankful for.
The song is Let's Give Thanks (sung to the tune of The Wheels on the Bus).
Let's give thanks for all we have,
All we have, all we have.
Let's give thanks for all we have.
(Name) is thankful for (object/person).
Some of the things the children have been thankful for this week include: moms, dads, brothers, sisters, grandmas, grandpas, cousins, teachers, dogs, cats, geese, toys, trees, corn, pie, bananas, & fruit snacks.
Some seem more random than others, but they are all important! My favorite of them all has to be teachers! =)
We hope everyone has a very happy Thanksgiving! Please take time to let those around you know what you are thankful for this holiday season!!
